Rodriguez made her statements while speaking to Cuban reporters covering the US-Cuba talks on March 31 on human rights. She said this exchange is one more example of Cuba´s willingness to address any issue with the United States on equal grounds and reciprocity.

The Cuban official delegation to the talks arrived in Washington on Sunday, headed by Pedro Luis Pedroso, deputy general director for Multilateral Affairs and International Law at the Cuban Foreign Ministry.

The US delegation is headed by Tom Malinowski, Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor.
